Failures occur in machinery
and components due
to defective design, wrong operation, poor material, wrong fuel or lubricating
oil, etc.
* Chemical analysis
of material.
* Macro and microanalysis
of sample specimen using microscope and scanning electron microscope.
* Metallurgical identification
of wear metals and particles using EDAX.
* Other studies such
as micro-hardness, surface roughness.
* Using extensive database
and engineering background to identify the
cause of failure.
* Suggestions to prevent
failures.
